NUKE 8.0, intuitive, fast, powerful and open than ever before.
With its broad range of highly desirable feature additions, NUKE 8.0 is the perfect tool to get your job done, be it in film, commercials, episodic or marketing and advertising. 





NUKE 8.0 highlights:

Complete creative control
NUKE 8.0 features a new Text node that lets artists compose, edit and animate directly in the viewer, and a huge update to the Dope Sheet that gives artists powerful timeline viewing of scripts. In addition NUKE 8.0 features a new intelligent in-context help system as well as a range of artist friendly colour controls including: an intuitive in-panel Colour Wheel, new Match Grade node (exclusive to NUKEX), a Pixel Analyser and Scopes for viewing the most detailed levels of colour data.


The cutting-edge in compositing
NUKE’s Camera Tracker has been redefined to make set solves even more simple within one integrated environment and the Model Builder now features UV creation to give artists even greater 3D control, these features (both exclusive to NUKEX) combine to make environment work fast and efficient all inside of NUKE.


Plugged further into the pipeline
With NUKE 8.0 developers can now write their own image processing operations inside of NUKE using the new Blink Script node to ensure the best possible performance from their teams hardware. The new Import NUKE function lets developers use NUKE as a module in any Python interpreter, and developers of C++ plugins can now output planar data in more flexible ways thanks to the new Planar Rendering Framework.


Jon Wadelton, NUKE Product Manager at The Foundry comments:
“This version of NUKE is very exciting because I truly believe we’ve made NUKE accessible to users of other compositing applications.
